1) Cytology is a division of Anatomical Pathology in which cells are examined under the microscope to detect a variety of diseases including various types of cancers. 2) There are 2 main types of cytology specimens - gynaecological and nongynaecological. Gynaecological specimens are usually Pap (cervical) smears. Non-gynaecological specimens fall into 2 categories – exfoliative and fine needle aspiration samples. 3) Cytologists, sometimes also known as cytotechnologists, are specially trained personnel who prepare cytology slides and examine them under the microscope to diagnose various types of diseases, including some types of cancers. Most of the abnormalities detected by the cytologist (including all of the cancers) are then examined by a pathologist before a final diagnosis is made.
